KARIN SLAUGHTER @MIDSUMMER MURDER ONE

13th June 2019

Karin Slaughter is already a No. 1 bestselling author and worldwide household name, with over 35 MILLION copies sold – and is now set to become even bigger with a gripping new crime thriller featuring Will Trent and Sara Linton The Last Widow, Karin’s first book following Will Trent and Sara Linton for 3 years.

Karin Slaughter will be in conversation with RTE’s Sinead Crowley in Dublin’s stunning City Hall on Thursday 13th June at 7.30pm. Tickets €15, €12 BOOK HERE!

The Last Widow begins with an abduction. The routine of a family shopping trip is shattered when Michelle Spivey is snatched as she leaves the mall with her young daughter. The police search for her, her partner pleads for her release, but in the end…they find nothing. It’s as if she disappeared into
thin air.

A month later, on a sleepy Sunday afternoon, medical examiner Sara
Linton is at lunch with her boyfriend Will Trent, an agent with the Georgia
Bureau of Investigation. But the serenity of the summer’s day is broken by
the wail of sirens.

Sara and Will are trained to help in an emergency. Their jobs – their
vocations – mean that they run towards a crisis, not away from it. But on
this one terrible day that instinct betrays them both. Within hours the
situation has spiralled out of control; Sara is taken prisoner; Will is forced
undercover. And the fallout will lead them into the Appalachian mountains,
to the terrible truth about what really happened to Michelle, and to a remote
compound where a radical group has murder in mind…
